      JIRA 6.4 Supported Platforms indicates that for MS SQL the JTDS driver version 1.2.4 is supported.

      However, more recent versions are available and offer substantial benefits. From the jTDS release notes for 1.3.0:

      The new versions are a quite huge update, also fixing a number of critical bugs and improving the performance, so we'd highly encourage you to upgrade.

      Version 1.3.0 is the first Java 7 compatible version of the driver and, beside the fix for bug #672, improves performance compared to version 1.2.7. The future development will be focused on the 1.3.x line of the driver, so further enhancements and bug fixes will not necessarily become available it the Java 1.3 compatible jTDS 1.2.x. You should only stick to jTDS 1.2 if you require to use a Java version prior to Java 7.
